Volume

The amount of space an object takes up

Page 2: Volume The amount of space an object takes up. Volume When measuring volume in liquid, Scientist use a unit known as the: mL Unit of measurement in liquids-mL

Volume

• When measuring volume in liquid, Scientist use a unit known as the: mL

• Unit of measurement in liquids-mL

Page 3: Volume The amount of space an object takes up. Volume When measuring volume in liquid, Scientist use a unit known as the: mL Unit of measurement in liquids-mL

What is the instrument called?

• Graduated cylinder is used to make accurate measurements

• Tool used: graduated cylinder

Always read a the meniscus

• Meniscus- is the lowest point at which the water curves.

What is the proper way to read at the meniscus?

• Now it is your time to test:• Measure 10 mL of water in a graduated

cylinder.• Remember: what do you need to be doing???

Volume of Rectangular Solids• How can the volume of a shoe box be

determined??

Cubic Centimeters

• L x W x H• Length multiplied by Width then multiplied by

Height.
